Times New Rohan

#251 - a week of adventure in the life of young rohan.

Rohan needed a day to acclimatize. This included not recognizing his grandparents and refusing to sit on ‘foreign laps’. Fortunately it was only a day!

After a difficult Day 1 at home in Kolkata, Rohan is happy again and ready to play.

It is not so easy to be sneaky around Rohan, he appears to sense when I am drawing him.

Thank you for reading. I am glad to have a share of your time and attention.
